It covers joystick controls for chute direction and blower height, the deflector switch, PTO power at 1000 RPM, and how the box blade tackles packed ice and windrows. Good for owners comparing implement combos for real winter workloads.
Posted by the Danimal's House channel, an owner sharing hands-on impressions from clearing snow on their own property.
Moving the joystick up and down controls the height of the snow blower, while left and right changes the direction of the discharge chute, which operates quickly.
The mid-mount PTO drives the snow blower at 1000 RPM, providing plenty of power though it can bog down in heavy snow if driven too fast.
Yes, using the adjustable top link to angle the box blade with scarifier teeth lets the operator break up eight to ten inches of packed ice.
